Long xc flight, two commercial rated pilots – question regarding logging time
Asked by: compussr 3322 views FAA Regulations
A friend of mine is offering to ferry his newly purchased c172 coast to coast, and we plan to do this under strictly VFR conditions as there is no set time table to arrive back home. We both have commercial certificates and I need to log time more than he does, so here are some questions regarding what I can log in the plane. My understanding is that, when i'm the sole manipulator of the controls, I can log PIC time. 1. What about when he's got the controls? Does any of those time count towards total time but not PIC time? 2. What about when he does the take off/landings, but I fly the leg? I can log a bunch of hours without a single take off and landing? Thanks in advance!
